Food blogger Hope Early finds one item not on her scavenger hunt list—a dead husband . . .
 
Between developing her food blog, Hope at Home, and choosing low-cal recipes for a feature in Cooking Now! magazine, Hope has a full plate. Still, she's never too busy to compete in a Jefferson, Connecticut, tradition—the town's annual scavenger hunt.
But as she races with her team to check off the next item, Hope discovers a grisly surprise—the body of shady real estate developer Lionel Whitcomb, shot in a parking lot. His wife Elaine, who's also in the hunt, gasps and nearly faints. But two other women on the scene cry out that their husband is dead.
It turns out this louse of a spouse was more than a little lax in legally divorcing his former wives. Did one of them put a bullet in the bigamist? Number one suspect and number three wife Elaine begs Hope to investigate. Now Hope is on a new kind of hunt—for a cold-hearted killer and triple widow-maker . . .
Includes Recipes from Hope's Kitchen!

      A food blogger probes the murder of a much-married real estate mogul. Freelancing has many advantages for Hope Early (The Hidden Corpse, 2019, etc.). Her flexible schedule allows her to take on interesting temporary assignments, like her current gig developing quick, healthy recipes for Cooking Now magazine. It also gives her time to participate in the local civic events of Jefferson, Connecticut, with her friends Drew Adams and Jane Merrifield. Unfortunately, at this year's annual Scavenger Hunt, Hope's first find is the corpse of local developer Lionel Whitcomb, shot to death in the parking lot of the Avery Bistro. Lionel's wife, Elaine, has a fit when she learns of her husband's demise, and her initial conniption quickly escalates into a nuclear meltdown when she discovers not one, but two former Mrs. Whitcombs, neither with the divorce papers that would have freed Lionel to marry again. Miranda and Rona Whitcomb are both in Jefferson hoping to clear up their legal status, which has been complicated rather than clarified by his death. Now all three widows are also murder suspects, and Hope's new boyfriend, Jefferson police chief Ethan Cahill, must rely on her grit and intuition to help solve a case with too many motives and not enough clues. Standard fare for food-cozy fans.
